HR and Health & Safety support for logistics

Keep your people, warehouse and transport operations moving with practical HR support for logistics. Get help with staff issues, safety priorities and everyday records, so managers can spend less time chasing information between shifts.

HR support for logistics

A missed handover, an unresolved absence or a training record that cannot be found can put pressure on the next shift. Logistics businesses need support that understands the relationship between their people, their sites and the work moving through them.

Our HR support for logistics businesses starts with your situation. We agree the priorities and help put the next steps into practice. The aim is to give you time back and solve the puzzle with you and for you.

People, safety and records working together

Practical HR support for logistics

Work through absence, conduct, probation and manager conversations across your warehouse, office and transport teams. We help you organise contracts and policies, explain the options and follow up agreed actions.

Health & Safety support

Review the risks around your warehouse and yard, including vehicle movements, loading, handling and pedestrian routes. Agree practical priorities with an adviser and keep the supporting assessment documents organised. For sector-specific context, see the HSE’s warehousing safety guidance.

Employee management software

Bring employee records, training evidence, absence, documents and tasks into the EPL Hub. Managers can find the relevant information and see the work assigned to them without relying on a colleague’s inbox.

Where the everyday work needs support

Shift handovers

Make responsibilities and outstanding actions clear when the people on duty change.

Training and competence records

Keep induction and training evidence connected to the employee, with follow-up tasks for the next steps.

Absence and attendance

Help managers respond consistently when attendance concerns affect the team and workload.

Start with the issue that is taking your time

Start with one process that creates repeated chasing: a new starter’s induction, a warehouse safety action or an absence follow-up. We will map the people, records and decisions involved, then agree how advice and the available Hub tools can help.

Choose a single service or discuss HR, Health & Safety and software together. Your proposal will set out the work included, the responsibilities and the fees before you decide.

Your logistics support questions

Can you help both warehouse and office teams?

Yes. Tell us about your roles, locations and working patterns. We will agree support around the people and activities involved.

Does this replace specialist transport advice?

We will clarify the scope of our HR and Health & Safety support and identify when your situation needs a transport specialist or other professional input.

Can we start with one issue?

Yes. Explain the situation and we will discuss the support available. We can begin with a specific piece of work or agree ongoing support around your business.

Do we need to buy the software?

No. Discuss advice, software or combined support with us. If the Hub could help, we will show you the relevant tools and confirm the modules and setup in your proposal.

Can we request a free review first?

Yes. Choose an HR review, contract, handbook, policy, risk assessment or COSHH assessment on our free workplace review page. Tell us what you want to understand so we can agree the focus.

We help complete the work

Your HR work, followed through

From onboarding and letter writing to employee relations, we work through the situation with you. You can arrange on-site support to manage difficult conversations.

Practical work at your workplace

Our safety team can visit your site, complete risk assessments and look at the risks in your actual operation. We agree the work and responsibilities with you.

Accountability and continuity

Your named advisers understand the context and help carry the work through. You receive specific support for your business, with a clear agreement about what we will complete.

Support you choose to stay with

Choose pay-as-you-go support or a straightforward 12-month support agreement. We keep the agreed price unchanged during your term. If you feel we are not helping or providing the support you need, speak to us: EPL’s commitment is to let you leave the agreement.

Software is month by month, with the flexibility to move up or down as your needs change. We will explain your package, the work included and the terms clearly before you join.

A supported start, with follow-through built in

Four software installation days

01 · Administrators

We set up your administrators first and walk through the foundations of your system with them.

02 · Managers

We work with managers on the tools and processes they will use to support their teams.

03 · Employees

We help employees get started and understand how to use their part of the Hub.

04 · Review and complete

We return to check the setup, answer questions and make sure you are properly onboarded. Our technical team walks and talks you through it until you are happy.

An action plan we stay accountable for

Audit-led support

We start by auditing your HR and Health & Safety needs, then create an action plan for the year ahead and work with you to complete it.

Monthly contact

If you have not contacted us during the month, we contact you. It is a chance to pick up people issues, new risks and the puzzles your managers need help solving.

Quarterly safety reviews

We review Health & Safety progress with you each quarter, walk through the action plan and help complete outstanding work. You can hold us accountable for that follow-through.

Already have an audit? Let’s get its actions completed.

If you join EPL with an existing audit, we use its findings to complete the tasks as part of your onboarding and welcome to EPL. We agree the actions with you and get to work.

For ongoing clients, the next review is about progress. If actions remain outstanding, we help complete them rather than simply repeating the previous year’s audit and handing over the same list again. Our focus is the value you receive and the work completed for your business.
